"We asked students to pour different types of drinks into cups of various sizes. We found that, in most cases, students are way too liberal in their definitions of single servings of alcohol," wrote Dr. Aaron M. White, assistant research professor in the department of psychiatry at Duke University Medical Center, in an e-mail. “Regardless of which type of drink we asked students to pour, they almost always poured too much," he wrote. The study found the students over-poured shots of alcohol into cups by 26 percent, into mixed drinks by 80 percent and beer by 25 percent The data suggested that students drink more alcohol than indicated by their responses in alcohol surveys, bringing into question the validity of alcohol surveys. The study also said that this might indicate that students are not well informed about the alcohol content of standard drinks. "I ve done it Everyone does it There’s nothing wrong with it," said Jason Wever, a sophomore majoring in biology and international rela tions. Wevet said he thinks that overpouring drinks occurs frequently on college campuses, but does not think that people would care if they realized they were over pouring their drinks.
